they have three flash points coming up, continuing resolution, sequestration, and the debt ceiling. and i think they're going to approach those in a very smart way. and i'm excited about what's ahead of us. i think reince priebus is part of the solution. i think he's done a good job. i'm going to support him, but i'm going to support him because i think he's for what's going to make our party stronger and better. and i don't want to be disrespectful, but i'm for joe biden in 2016. i know this is a no anti-joe zone, but i think from a republican standpoint, the best chance we would have against joe biden more so than hillary clinton. >> as they say, be careful what you wish for. get your act together at home ferris. >> cokie roberts, thank you so much, joe nasef, thank you as well. david ignatius, do you want to stick around? >> yeah. >>> up next, we have some of the other big headlines from the morning papers. keep it right here on "morning joe." i'm jessica simpson. and this year is all about new beginnings for me. i lost over 50 lbs on weight watchers and did not have to be perfec

tomorrow, they're going to introduce their bill, vote on their bill to extend the debt ceiling for three months, give themselves a little running room, but this is a president who is going to be aggressive about his agenda. he didn't just talk over republicans, he went right after them, talking about takers, s saying that's not what social security and medicare are, a jab not only at mitt romney but paul ryan, who he will be dealing with. >> when you have a guy who has bullied you in the schoolyard for four years and you finally fight the bully and you beat them like he just did in this election, you're not as afraid of the bully as you was or at least cautious. i think they bullied this president. he went to the mat and re-elected with a wider margin than george bush and saying the bullying is over. we're either going to fight or work together. >> the problem is both sides feel like they were bullied over the past four years and they've got to figure out how to work together over the next four years. i want to talk about yesterday with you quickly and open it up. it struck me as a son o
